    You know, it's always really been like thay

    Dolls : Girls

    Action Figures : Boys

    It's sad, really. I mean, I wouldn't wanna get a doll to play tea or nothing but to drown her in my bathroom sink or make a perachute and throw her off the second floor which would make the doll an action figure lolz

    Hehe, you bring back memories of me and my sister poppin' the heads of our Skipper and Barbie dolls. We'd have a ball just chuckin' them at each other. (2 points if you hit some one with a Barbie head, 1 point if it was Skipper's)

    I think a Suki action figure would be amazing! She could have a little fan, sword, swrirly shield, and her awsome outfit. I just wish that Nick would wake up and smell the coffee and realize what a gold mine they were sitting on!

    Its amazing that they would not make a Katara figurine I thought this would be the first thing they would make after aang and zuko. This is really just dumb because even though I am definently over collecting figure I would think many people would love these figures even if it is just to complete their avatar figure collection.?? I don't see why most childrens merchendise has to be market at boys with a few exeptional popfeminism stuff (Kim Possible) every once in a while. Its not because sexism but because people want cash.

    I'm not even kidding, can we start a petition, we need to plaster it all over the popular Avatar fansites! We should demand:

    1. FEMALE action figures - Wake up Nick and Mattal, we are in the 21st century!

    2. Avatar Room decor - So a low life show such as SpongeBob can have 20 bedspreads and a fricken radio, lamp, towels, blah blah blah,??and we get NOTHING!?

    3. Avatar School Supplies - Where are the Zuko pencils? Where are the Katara notebooks? Where are the Aang binders? Where are the Toph erasers? Hmmmm? HMMMM?

    4. Anything Else Under the Sun that is Avatar - do not underestimate us, we will buy Avatar!

    Plushies and gummies and sexist "boy only toys" are not enough!

    They should so make a katara or toph i mean, how can they do aang, zuko and sokka then totally skip katara and do action figures like king bumi or avatar roku?

    ive heard before that since avatar is mainly aimed towards boys and that only powerful guy characters would appeal to them and thats why they haven't made girl avatar costumes or stuff like that, but i don't think they should unestimate their audience

    if they can make an aang in a water bending outfit that he's never once worn in the series, then why can't they make a katara?????

    ok, now that's just dumb. i'm sorry, but that is dumb. my little sister, who is 9, she loves avatar, and when we went to the mall and saw no girl dolls, both of us were mad out of our minds! i think we should start a petition or something, because us girls like action figures too! or at least some of us.



    I LIKE ACTION FIGURES. NOT DOLLS. I WANT MY AVATAR ACTION FIGURES NOW, ALL OF THEM. ACTION FIGURES ARE COOL!!!!*weeps*
